One point was to arrange A5 papers onto A4 landscape paper either side-by-side or as a booklet. He made two bash scripts for this. `pfarrei' provides one texlua script for the same. Other points would be, e.g, special limitations of the page break. `pfarrei' provides LaTeX commands and environments to help for that too. Requires: LaTeX2e, ifpdf, pdfpages, TeXLua License: LPPL 1.3c or later State: Maintained Topics: compact output, typically multiple pages/sheet ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Special installation note: To extract all the files just call `tex pfarrei.dtx'. Note, that you have to use tex NOT latex or pdflatex! The manual may be done using `pdflatex pfarrei.dtx' two times. After this, you should copy the files like this into a valid TEXMF tree (aka TDS tree): a5toa4.tlu --> scripts/pfarrei/a5toa5.tlu pfarrei.tlu --> scripts/pfarrei/pfarrei.tlu a5toa4.tex --> tex/latex/pfarrei/a5toa4.tex pfarrei.sty --> tex/latex/pfarrei/pfarrei.sty pfarrei.pdf --> doc/latex/pfarrei/pfarrei.pdf README --> source/latex/pfarrei/README pfarrei.dtx --> source/latex/pfarrei/pfarrei.dtx Users, that do not use Windows, should also copy a5toa4.tlu to the binary directory of their TeX distribution and rename that copy into a5toa4 (without extension). Windows users using TeX Live, should make a copy of runscript.exe with the name a5toa4.exe in the binary directory of their TeX distribution. Windows users using MiKTeX <= 2.9 should remove scripts/pfarrei/a5toa4.tlu and rename scripts/pfarrei/pfarrei.tlu --> scripts/pfarrei/a5toa4.tlu because MiKTeX <= 2.9 uses an outdated texlua, that does not search for modules correctly. Wndows users using MiKTeX should also copy ...\MiKTeX\miktex\bin\internal\runtexlua.exe --> ...\MiKTeX\miktex\bin\a5toa4.exe and start the MiKTeX Package Manager to install package miktex-cairo-bin-2.9, if not already installed. Please note, that there's also a TDS distribution of `pfarrei' that may be installed simply by extraction of `pfarrei.tds.zip' at a TEXMF tree and additionally copying the binary to the binary directory of the TeX distribution as described above. ============================================================================
